De amerikanske spesialstyrkene planlegger et konsept, hvor C-130 får på seg pontonger og blir omgjort til sjøfly.
Så får man se om konseptet, da vel kalt MC-130J blir noe av, men blir i hvertfall større enn det meste som flyr fra vann i dag

Back in May, we reported on the fact that U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) really wanted to make the long-standing dream of a C-130 seaplane a reality. In fact, the so-called MC-130J Amphibious Capability, or MAC, was listed as one of its new procurement priorities. While we had a grainy little rendering of what this could look like when we filed that report, as well as other historical design concepts, we now have a far better look at exactly what they want, and yes, it is a C-130 on floats.
